Bradley

Great from start to finish. Excellent if you are looking for a short break with a dog. Information on the local area greatly appreciated as well. Will 100 be coming back.

Antony

Great place with absolutely stunning views of the valley and hills we are planning on visiting in the future. .just what we needed

Woodland View is a real gem secluded, private, spacious grounds perfect for the dogs with great views. The location is idyllic with regular fly overs from the red kites and the constant harmonious, soothing chorus from the birds from morning until night. Fabulous hot tub and a cosy, compact Shepherds hut. We will definitely be returning. 5 stars

A small split in the settee had me half dreading that we could get the blame for, and getting into bed was a bit of a clamber. I would suggest a couple of drop down ledges for either side of the bed, which could be brought down to put stuff on, and then flipped up when not in use. All in all it was a lovely place, with a cracking hot tub. Would definitely return in future.

Daniel

An excellent place to stay and we will 100 be returning visitors. Everything is just perfect here.

Kerrie

Fabulous stay! Loved it thank you.

Joanna

Firstly, appreciate we arrived an hour early but the property was obviously ready for us arriving. We asked the lady in the property if we could go inside as we needed the WiFi for work. She called her manager who stated we could go inside if we paid 20 to a link. We chose to sit in the car. Secondly, place wasnt very clean. Food remnants down the cushions of the sofa which tips forward when you sit on it, a tv that isnt watchable due to where its situated, and a fridge thats both marked and damaged and the freezer obviously hasnt been defrosted in years we couldnt actually put anything in it without it falling out. Next, misleading information 1 mile to the nearest pub. Its not. Its 1.752 miles and the road doesnt have a pavement and is unlit. And as for put the lid back on the hot tub correctly or well fine you 50 what on earth are you thinking?! First time using Sykes cottages and this property and will be the last. We came home 2 days early which we notice hasnt been acknowledged as we were completely fed up. Either represent the property and area correctly or dont do it at all. Such a shame as Wales is beautiful but when you learn you could have stayed in a two level property right in the centre of Rhayader for 10 less PER NIGHT, it doesnt help. Wont be back. And anyone who asks about Sykes cottages, wont be getting a recommendation from us. You ruined our holiday. Thanks.

Rhiannon

A beautiful pod for our little family get away in a stunning location! Only a few minute drive to the small village and so many local walks for our pup! Will definitely come back!

Lauren

Had an amazing weekend stay at Woodland View lodge. Lodge was clean and cosy, hot tub was great. Would definitely stay again and will be recommending to family and friends!

Very nice and clean, really good view and good location.

The canbin was lovely with great view to wake up to an was in a nice area to be able to go for walks from. But did get very hot in the cabin during sunny days so a fan is needed

Kacper

It was mine and my missus very first time staying in Wales, the woodland view lodge provided everything and more than we expected, very clean, it had everything needed to make a tea, coffee, breakfast, dinner, the appearance of everything inside very stylish too. We absolutely loved the hot tub, very relaxing provided good fun and relaxation, Was cleaned out everyday in the morning by staff. The fire pit was a nice touch, we used that a couple times, it was nice to sit outside at the little table in the morning, parking also very spaceous and easily accessible. About 4 minutes by car away from the lovely town of Rhayader, Overall would rate a solid 1010 nothing more needed loved the stay and Thank You.

Belinder

A beautiful location, the views are amazing. Great for a relaxing break just to unwind. We loved the jacuzzi and the lodge feels very homely which I really liked. It would be handy to have an oven and upon our arrival the door lock broke as it became loose, which meant we couldnt lock the door. We tried to make contact with the owner with the number given but it was quite difficult, when we eventually did we were told she had received no missed calls but we did send over a picture of our call log to show we attempted to make contact. We pretty much couldnt lock our front door throughout our whole stay which wasnt ideal, but our belongings were fine this was the only downside.

Amazing break with husband and dog, really peaceful and relaxing. Views from the hut are gorgeous, hot tub was lovely. Went for a walk to the elan Valley waterfalls which was also great. Only thing I would change really would be to have an oven in the hut but other than that was a great stay.

Really lovely lodge nice and quiet with lovely views. The lodge was nice and clean with great facilities. Would definitely stay here again really impressed with the whole stay.

Rhiann

I gave this trip as a gift to my aunt and uncle for her birthday. Not the owners fault but it rained the whole time. Hot tub was unusable as did not have a cover on it. I tried to change the date which was refused due to being short notice. Unfortunately they only stayed the one night instead of the three I had paid for. My aunt did say the property was beautifully clean though. I'd say the best time to book would be in the summer.

Hollie

We enjoyed our stay here. It was very cosy and a nice getaway. Unfortunately the weather was awful so we couldnt enjoy the hot tub as much as we hoped to but overall it was a lovely weekend away

The property was really nice and in a beautiful location. We were also really impressed with the amount of land around the property for the dogs to explore securely. Also, the hot tub was amazing!!! Suggestions to improve the stay would be having an oven instead of the dishwasher, instructions for the appliances and better range of self catering utensils such as better pans. All in all though it was clean, cosy and I highly recommend staying there.

Robert

Very clean and peaceful. Hottub lovely managed to use once

Hannah

We had a lovely stay, would recommend to friends and are likely to return again!

Samantha

Amazing g holiday the hot tub was incredible,will definitely be bk

Matthew

Perfect honeymoon location and woodland view was so peaceful and cozy. Beautiful dog walking locations near by and relaxing in the hot tub in the evenings was such a bonus.

Abigale

Me and my boyfriend had the most amazing postCOVID getaway! !! We were so happy with the place we stayed and would 1000 come back again.

Coleen

We loved it in your wonderful Pod, lovely for our dog too. Very clean and everything you need its very cosy! Two years ago we stayed here and there was a wonderful virtual fire its a wonderful feature shame not there now. Could maybe do with extra storage space and hooks. But an excellent place to stay. Elan valley is beautiful!

What a lovely place to stay, hot tub was cleaned every day, the views were stunning

Philip

Fantastic location great accommodation friendly staff exactly what a holiday should be. This was our 3rd visit here and once again we couldnt have asked for any more.

This is the second time we have stayed and couldn't wait to go back. . Everything perfect and a tray of tea, coffee, biscuits and milk were provided which was a lovely suprise.hot tub yet again was amazing. Hand sanitiser outside the door for us to use. Can't wait to try the new Hobbits when they are finished.

Kennedy

Holiday was perfect couldnt fault it.

We stayed for a week and loved everyday that we was there. It sits on a small site with a few other pods around. I felt that this one was the best placed for privicy. Small issues with flies but with it being middle of summer understandable. It didn't ruin our stay. We took our little dog and she had a whale of a time. Lit the fire pit on a night and sat round it with a drink. Loved everythimg about this lovely little pod. Will return definitely. Thankyou for a relaxing enjoyable stay.

We loved our pod great facilities, excellent location. Lovely little town centre with enough to do. The pod was spotless and great to chill out and relax, and this is what we did!! The owners Gemma and Ben people, hot tub is great, we will visit again.

Nice little cosy pod perfect for relaxing especially in the hot tub, the hot tube did take little longer than expected to warm but the staff were extremely helpful and give us a bag of fire wood free of charge for the inconvenience. The bed was lovely and comfortable and the pod was very well equipped will definitely be staying here again. The days away were perfect although the pods could use a oven

Helena

We had a lovely time at Woodland View, beautiful surroundings, cosy pod, large garden for the dog and a hot tub with beautiful views. All you could want from a peaceful get away. Many places to visit nearby. Will definitely return.

We booked this little lodge for a mini break in the new year to give us a few days to wind down and relax, the lodge was lovely, very small but was perfect for the few days away, the views from this place were absolutely breathtaking i couldnt wait to wake up in the morning to see the views, incredible! A couple of negatives the fire on the wall let out no heat what so ever so all we have to heat the lodge up was a portable heater which at times just wasnt powerful enough to keep the place warm, however we didnt contact the owners about this as we dont like to bother people maybe if we did it could have been fixed, secondly no cooker which was abit of a pain with only a microwave and 2 hobs to cook on made mealtimes somtimes challenging but we made do and it was fine, we would have liked a washing machine instead of a dishwasher being on fields and having dogs it would have really helped having a washing machine to wash towels as we didnt feel enough were left for our stay, luckily we took some of our own. And lastly directions to this place were not helpful, we put the postcode in which we were given and we ended up lost and had to ask for directions. I feel it could have been made clearer. However the negatives i listed were not really negatives as they didnt impact our stay in the slightest and we had a wonderful time especially relaxing in the hot tub which at any time of day is perfect! If you are looking for a get away for a few days thats dog friendly, beautiful views & hot tub i would recommend this place we had a brilliant time

Lovely location and a well equipped accommodation with everything we needed for a great vacation.

Rebecca

Really enjoyed our stay, it was the first time we had booked a holiday like this and we had high hopes for our stay! The holiday did not disappoint, the log cabin was absolutely spotless, cozy and lovely and warm. The hot tub was luxurious and private too. We took our little dog with us and he loved his long walks in the nearby Gilfach Nature reserve, only an 8 minute drive from the cabin. Can't wait to come back!

Fantastic location, huts where clean and well presented! Hot tub was lovely. Only thing that was missing was an oven. Only a electric hob and microwave available.

Would have liked to have an oven but apart from that it was fantastic!

Absolutely superb break . ... pod and all facilities 1st class. Owners very helpful and always on hand naking sure our stay wS perfect. Definately returning ... with family next time Cannot recommend the holiday break more highly . Loved it !!!!
